I dont have a photo sorry. Im sure you have found the area on the drivers side firewall by now where the stock wires are coming into the cab. If you take vent cover off and shine a flashlight through the engine compartment into where the hole is in the firewall, you will be able to see that light from inside the cab where the vent panel was removed. I used a coat hanger to feed the wire through. ITs tight but should take you more than 5 minutes.

I left a lot of slack in wire behind the vent after all was done. I have about an extra foot of all three wires should I ever need it later.

I also rewired the light today. I wanted to make it look neat. Cant beleive I didnt burn anything out.

Do you plan on doing any 4 wheeling? I'm trying to get a beach permit for Robert Moses Beach, but not sure how to get it done.
Port Washington here!

This is my first Jeep and I just found this thread.
